Belos - First Vicar of the Blood Coven
Centuries ago a mysterious figure revolutionized the Boiling Isles' approach to magic... for if the Titan was the source of all magic, and its blood a vessel of its power, why not indulge in the consumption of such holy medium and ascend witchhood in the attempt to become one with magic itself...? Such is the purpose of the Blood Coven: to study and transcend the limits of magic while defending the population from a new danger, the Scourge of Beasts.
"We are born of the blood..."
The Coven accepts any witch in its ranks, both as ruthless hunters and huntresses and as researchers for the study, refinement and administration of the Holy Medium destined to the population of the Isles. Typical motiff of the Coven's highest members is the covering of once eyes, the reasons behind such self imposed blindness is debated among the public, sparking not few rumors... from a ritualistic symbol of superiority to the idea that helps the Coven members not fall into madness from the daily horrors they fight... in few and rare occasions a peculiar set of words rumors around: "...eyes on the inside..."
"...made witches by the blood..."
The Scourge of Beasts
While monsters and dangerous creatures of all sort are far from new on the Boiling Isles, the Scourge of Beasts is a whole new deal.
A "sickness" that affect both the body and mind of one's being and twist them into a grotuesque and horrifying blood thirsty monster, rendering them a danger for anyone in their presence, a plague that takes place almost every night, and infillibly every night of full and dark moon.
The Blood Coven was the only one dealing with them through the institution of Hunters and their own Workshop in the early days, and still does for the most dangerous beasts, but through the years they hearten secondary Workshop to fight the Scourge on a more capillar level, leading to raids and hunt parties through all the Isles and quickly, the Nights of Hunt became a central aspect of Boiling Isles' culture, the blood of the Beasts a resource to harvest and refine into a myriad of concoctions, fine cocktails and other mediums, until blood, in all of its form, became another key component of the culture... a medium to be worshiped, consumed and shared... and the Hunt a chance for young and brave witches to prove themselves while keeping the Isles safe.
Very few know the true secret behind the Scourge of Beasts, of course... and often time, the revelation is enough to break someone's mind to the point of no return...
"...undone by the blood... Fear the Titan Blood."
Keep going with the Owl House X Bloodborne AU, this time an examination on the Plague of Beasts and the Healing Church transposed on the Boiling Isles and the Emperor's Coven.

All animals are either Beasts or Creatures. This is usually consistent for a given species, but not always; for example, most dogs are Beasts and most cats are Creatures, but occasionally one will encounter a cat who is clearly a Beast, or dog who's an absolute Creature.

Video
You can feel the power of a Bull Hippo just watching this, the most dangerous mammal in the world.
They aren’t fat at all, that’s all pure muscle! They cannot float, they just run along the bottom of the water!

Thesis: while strictly speaking a "beast" is any non-human animal, archetypally a "beast" is a large quadrupedal vertebrate, and the further an animal is from embodying that archetype, the funnier describing it as a "beast" becomes.

my brother as a beast
#his full pseudonym is grayscale/gray so i made him a grayscale sphinx :o)#i had a little fun with the colors on this one. was a little scared of using the blue outlines but i think it works#he does look kind of gloomy because of his bangs and resting face but hes actually way more social than me#hes talked to more people in his class than i have since i started. god damn#paws are more long and nimble because his fingers are long and lankier than mine#the long fur is a stylistic choice and because he wears thick/baggy sweaters a lot#my art#myart#creature design#character design#graysona#gray#sphinx#beasts#fur#furry art
